  • I’ll say this upfront, I think Nino has some of the best supports in the entire game. Even with the GBA’s limitations, her 7 supports managed to capture a lot of her quirks and insecurities, while also fleshing them out in a satisfying way. These include things like her work ethic, youthful curiosity, obliviousness, but also her fear of betrayal and her lack of self-worth. In this video, I’m going to discuss Nino’s personality and explore the depth of her character.

      Not all of us have this bad experience.
      The joke's on you, as I identified with her character half my life ago, before the internet made me cynical.
      Following this video, I reminisced over FE7 through itse wiki pages, re-discovering the various characters, the dynamic relations, and the story with it's complex twists (this whole war, with humanoid creatures, and political undergoing, and assassination schemes... was just to get people killed, to get their "quintessesnse" (souls/unfinished desires?), to call over the dragons, to get THEIR quintessence, to revive one beloved dragon-waifu... incidentally almost sacrificing her 2 children by coincidence).
      When you hear people talking about Cersei from GoT as an exceptional character, you know they totally missed on an even more extreme woman in a more complex story (Sonya).
      Compare it to the shallow gacha game we have now, where the story is "the season changed", or "lets beat some random heroes who signed a contract like idiots", or "I appreciate your hard work in this game (consider me your waifu)"... When I started playing FEH, I told my brother, this isn't really a Fire Emblem game.
      People can call me old and bitter, but until I get a story as amazing as 7's, I consider Fire Emblem to be on the decline.

    The fun part about Nino is that since she's an EST character, you need to give her a lot of love and care to make her usable. Her sad story also makes you want to care for her. In a sense, what you feel towards her as a character and how you interract with her through gameplay is very similar.

      Evilriku13 proof of Nino being top tier is her weapon, in combination with her SPD and ATK, which are all above average.
      She can hit 40 SPD with L&D 2, her ATK with L&D 2 is also around 50. Her weapon, a bladetome, is easily one of the best in the game, and Nino uses it better than most.

      Elian Rodriguez I like to think maybe Nino isn’t dead by the time of FE 6.
      That when she left her sons in the care of Lucius, she had every intention of coming back.
      That when the assassins working under orders from Hector and Matthew to hunt down Black Fang members, she fought bravely, but had to go underground.
      That when the war broke out, Hector was killed, and the dragons/Bern were defeated, Nino no longer had anyone hunting her. That maybe, just maybe, she found her sons again.
      She deserves that much.

    @charliefu2854 5 лет назад +62

    10:58 I think you seem to have a misconception about Legault's intentions during their A support. The way you describe the A support tends to imply that Legault didn't want Nino to be a burden to him, but that is likely not the case. Legault is plenty shrewd and clever enough that surely the two would be able to get by one way or another. If you assess Legault's other supports, it's fairly clear that while he does generally act out of self-interest, he does have affection for the other members of the black fang, and possesses a certain wisdom from having experienced so much.
    As someone who has lived a live in the darkness doing shady deeds, he is likely resigned to thinking that a life of peace would likely no longer be possible for him (and it's probably true, he probably has a big target on his back as someone who has done a lot of work as an assassin). Nino, however, is young and innocent, and likely hasn't been quite so involved. It is still possible for her to escape that future and live a quiet simple life. Who in their right mind would want to wish a life of murder and death on someone with so much brightness, positivity, and potential? You skip over the very last line of the A support in which Legault says "...Nino..." as you start analyzing how depressing this support chain is, but that one line clues us into the fact that Legault does indeed care about her. If he didn't the support either would have ended right as Nino left, or he would have said something akin to "good riddance". When you put things into that perspective, it would be more accurate to say Legault is saying they CAN'T be friends after this conflict, rather than that they won't be friends anymore. I think in this particular support assessment, you fixate a bit too much on her need for acceptance and miss the bigger picture of the story that this support chain is trying to tell. Nino may want acceptance, but Legault decides that he cannot be the one to provide her that because what is best for her would be a quiet, peaceful, and happy life.
    It's also worth noting that in both of her A supports that have special endings, either Jaffar or Nino herself gets targeted by bounty hunters which causes the other partner to leave in pursuit of them, so Legault's prediction isn't that far off. The biggest tragedy, in fact, is that Legault's efforts to make sure Nino gets away from a life of sin still doesn't prevent those sins from catching up to her.

      and she should be on par with Tharja since tharja since birth has been exposed to dark magic and practice it since childhood, even Noire born as a possible dark mage prodigy regardless of the father.
      Nino is powerful no doubt but more than them, i dont think so.

    Nino’s support with Rebecca really reminds me of Neimi’s support with Amelia from FF8. The support is basically about them reminiscing about berries and pies, and bonding over the small moments like that. Sure it isn’t all too deep or serious but it’s one of my favorite supports nonetheless. Just two young, likely teenage girls caught up in something so much bigger than themselves, just trying to let things go for a minute and have a little happy, insignificant moment.

My nino had enough skill and speed to evade everything from heroes to sword masters and would double them if she didn't kill them outright. Everyone's beef is you do have to train her from a nobody to a nuke.

      @chasecrocker3956 7 лет назад +39

      Mathematics is pretty objective if you ask me. Her poor bases and super late join time make raising her into a good unit more hassle than it's worth if you're just trying to get through the game (you'll have to slow down your game to feed her kills and take experience away from the rest of the party, some of whom could probably still use it, not like the exp matters that much at the end of the game anyway), since you should already have units that do what she can do in Erk and Pent, Erk having a ton of time to grow and Pent having great bases. The main reason to use Nino is to explore her interesting character and give her a paired ending, hopefully.

  • @GabeSweetMan
    @GabeSweetMan 6 лет назад +7

    Nino was popular because she's one of the most important non-Lord characters in the story with the most complex ties to the Villain Team out of the entire roster.
    AND (while extremely difficult to pull off) if you are willing to level grind her in the few chapters you have left before the end of the game she easily becomes the STRONGEST mage bar none. It's NUTS how good her stat growth is. You are practically guaranteed to get 3-4 stats minimum per level.

    Honestly, Nino is one of my favorite characters out of any video game. So much had happened to her at such a young age, but she managed to persevere, to become better than she ever could. If FE6/7 ever gets remade, I would love to have her return as some type of Gotoh type character at the end of FE6's story, maybe even as a replacement for Karel should different conditions be met (example, Hugh/Raigh/Lugh have a higher level than Fir/Noah/Bartre). Maybe she even comes back with Jaffar, because let's face it, Jaffar is way better than any of the thieves in FE6 simply because there were no assassins.

    NINO, BEST EVERYTHING
    I don't think there has been a character I have wanted to hug more in a Fire Emblem game than Nino. Just the thought that all she really wants is to have the bare minimum of physical affection from a family, and how she seizes so heavily on nothing more than promises of hugs and cheek-stroking... I have yet to be able to play Blazing Sword without using her, except in one or two speedy runs, as I can't help but get her A support with Jaffar every time and that tanks the Tactics rank like hell
    "I will become worthy… I will. Mother will be proud of me. She will see the daughter I’ve become, and she will love me."
    It's a shame she's so inefficient as a unit, but I've never found her difficult to use, at least. A rare example of an Est-archetype being more satisfying specifically because of her gameplay-and-story-integration.
    She's not even a bad unit, either, at least by the normal definition of "bad".

    If there's be an Elibe comp remakes, i wish that they have interchangeable system where you can have a Blazing Blade character available for Binding Blade portion, like having Nino to finally meet with her children, or any other possible candidate like Raven and Erk (but certainly not Oswin and Lucius for obvious reasons) by loading a Clear Blazing Blade save file to the Binding Blade game.

      Well that would take alot of work for something that people might not even see. It's a great idea though.

      Sauce I doubt that's even the case;
      The games has a history on using previous game save files for extra content (Radiant Dawn specifically). They won't be able to do it is like a ruse not to create such quality content in a single game.

    This was an amazing video, it does justice to Nino´s story.

    Me as about a month or so ago had cleared my first playthrough with Nino and Erk with an A support.
    Now I get it , you are protecting the one's you love and cherish. But like uuuuggghhh...!!! Have some kind of escape plan!?
    Now I am not an expert on the matter. But something along the lines of.
    Erk: Nino dear can we talk?
    Nino: Sure whats the problem?
    Erk: If at some point in the future we find ourselves in a bad spot. Find Master Pent or Canas and have them send me a Scry or some thing and I'll bring the kids and be on route to get to you or heck you could meet me half-way they can't stop the two of us can they. *coughs* Or we could use the warp staff. I'm just sayin', it be smart just in case.

    Like this is the level of stuff I plan for since I was like 18. ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!! Its common friggen sense!!

    I find it funny you're going back to Fates after playing Echoes. I always loved Nino even though I never remembered much of her supports since, at the time, I didn't know about them when I played my brother's copy of FE Blazing Sword. But knowing all of this makes me love her even more. Est archetypes are always a favorite of mine, even if it's hard to get the most out of them sometimes. I would actually love to see a "Defense of Est" support science with Echoes out now. Est shares a few traits with Nino, most notably her strong desires to help, get stronger, and her devotion to her family, especially siblings.

    And what happens to Nino after Jaffar leaves?
    She disappears too.
    I don't think she will ever get a happy ending ...
    Poor cinnamon roll ...

      +Change Doll well you can't take them with you if you are wanted by bounty Hunters.
      Seeing how Lucius opens an orphanage in Araphen, he might be the one Who looked After her children, so perhaps she left them in his care.
      My Theory, but I Doubt she had a choice.
      On a Side Note: if that is true, then Lucius is dead

      she does get a decent ending if not paired up with Erk/Jaffar where ELiwood lets her settle down is a small village without any mention of the hell that is having hunters after you

    Speaking of Nino's children, We got Raigh in Heroes and we need to wait for Lugh to show up in Heroes. It's like a family reunion.
